MONTHLY FOIBLES
...wherein we discuss what did and didn’t work for us this month…
Moss, I tried Manjaro on both of my laptops; in each case, it caused one of my other installations to be hidden to Grub. No idea why. I had the same problem with GeckoLinux, including having Gecko and Manjaro do it to each other, but with Manjaro I still had boots to Linux Mint and Bodhi (on the T430) whereas I did not have those with Gecko or on a brief attempt at OpenSUSE.

And after a lot of trying, I have come to the conclusion that Manjaro is a no-go for me. When I do updates or install programs, the download gets done and freezes. When I reboot and go to do the update or installation, it finds the downloaded programs and installs them. I contacted the users in the Manjaro Forum.

Donate To Moss (Optional)

I have now set up a Sponsus account for regular sponsorships (Moss Only - Tony doesn't want any more money). Please visit the page at https://sponsus.org/u/zaivala .  This will help defray the costs of new computer stuff (used, cheap) and also help me set up a local LUG.

Sponsus will take regular monthly payments until you cancel them. They keep $0.30 plus 7%. Donations should be a minimum of $3.00 US per month, just because of how they process payments.

Do you want premiums? Tell me what you'd like. I certainly can put out new or old recordings of my music, but I'm not sure many of you would like that... let me know.

You can also donate directly to me at PayPal to zaivalananda@protonmail.ch.
